THE LUNARI MASK

The coast of Mallow - a land of salt marshes and villages on piles and rocky coves - is the home of Peg Willowbawn. The elderly mageborn, known affectionately as Granny Peg, has a sharp wit and a dry sense of humor when it comes to dealing with the mortalborn fisher folk of Dun Curragh and her great granddaughter Moreen. Their normally calm life is shattered when the Pirate Blackwater invades the Moon Isles and steals the Lunari Mask. Peg knows the mask has a history of evil intentions, but what neither she nor the scurrilous pirates of the Nightmare bargained for was an ancient evil living in the depths of the stone.
Eric Brenwold seeks vengeance on Dall Blackwater for killing his best friend. Blackwater's mageborn first mate, Kenan, isn't really happy being a pirate, but is unsure of how to escape his reputation or the pirate. Put this bunch together in a high-seas adventure and you have a "whole kettle of battle crabs just itching to tear each other apart," as Granny Peg might say.
What's an old lady to do? Start kicking pirate butt big time in the hope of stopping an ancient evil from rising.

"Laura J. Underwood knows how to deliver breathtaking fantasy adventure. If you're in the mood for swashbuckling pirates, evil bloodmages and the canniest wise woman since Granny Weatherwax, you're going to love The Lunari Mask." - Melanie Fletcher
